Marc Irwin composes orchestral, small-ensemble and solo works for film, stage and contemporary concert audiences.
SOUND Palatte
In his concert works, Marc integrates twelve-tone technique with jazz harmonies and contemporary dissonance often in traditional classical forms.
His jazz compositions and theatre arrangments reflect a broad variety of influences from avant-garde, contemporary and fusion to main stream, barrel-house piano solos and hard bebop horn arrangements.
